Those are equivalent to apps (just like all the other keyboard apps that have different layouts), and that Forum is the "Themes and Apps Forum".

I am not trying is disparage your work, it sounds great.

I just agree with fattire that we cannot have every different collection of pieces being a different thread in this Forum - it pushes the main Development threads off the main page.
[Nook Color Android Development] dalamchops:
if you don't have anything to contribute to the thread just stay out of it.

Thanks for the hard work!
[Nook Color Android Development] Xephik:
Yeah really, don't knock it. Its still useful work. Thanks for your contribution, OP!
[Nook Color Android Development] sebanoel:
I do not have a BT keyboard for now.

I appreciate your work. i will use it as soon as i get a BT keyboard, not only ******* RF.

Thanks
[Nook Color Android Development] shadowswittness:
I haven't contributed much but updating the latest CM7 build to be dual boot. Everyone who contributes should be thanked and not made to feel like their efforts are for nothing. Anyways that's my 2 cents. LOL
[Nook Color Android Development] eyecrispy:
Thanks OP.

I'll have to give this a go later. Can you explain how this "supports" the zoom and other iPad keyboards? I use an apple keyboard and would like to understand.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Thanks to the posters.

It was my understanding that fattire thought this was cm7 plus a boot animation or whatever. This isn't cm7. This is merely the files needed to put LWP back into cm7, the modified files for decent bluetooth keyboard support, and a few things from phiremod that I could pull out so those who like phiremod can use the latest cm7.

Then you said move it to the themes forum. I don't care where it goes, I just wanted to be sure you understood this isn't just a boot animation. This has replacement keyboard layout ascii and binary files to properly support a bluetooth keyboard.

I would like to see the two keyboard files pushed into cm7 and this entire thread is unneeded. Everything else can be had from elsewhere. I can put the miui player, and other stuff up elsewere.
[Nook Color Android Development] fattire:
For the record, that's exactly what I thought it was... so it was my mistake. I thought it was YAF™ (Yet Another Fork)... sorry again for jumping the gun.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Yeah I get it dude. I am far more into spooning than forking.
[Nook Color Android Development] jayjay7411:
Hell yea Thankd ffor this!!!!
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
You're welcome! :)
[Nook Color Android Development] aludal:
Thank you, Mr chisleu, for your very interesting mod. While I'm not a fan of a harshly limited YouTube I take the liberty to quote this:

These are much more important improvements, IMHO. I only hope that people who tried this mod may share their experiences here.

Last thing is my humble personal preferences for a CM7 code or its mod:

-- I think any CM7 release (including nightlies) can have CWR specially tooled for NC, plus with an option to make it into a bootable SD;

-- I think of returning the n17 BT/AdHoc code to a present CM7 code. I know, it takes rebuilding, but it's worth it;

-- I think of a mod supplying Divine_Madcat's I/O improved OC 1.1 GHz kernel to it;

-- CM7 nightlies include a working Gapps install script, maybe chisleu won't be afraid of The GOOG wrath and include Gapps?

-- next I think of USB Host, FM Radio CM7, audio boost devs for NC don't seem to care a lot about, but it's just me, sorry.

Great work, anyway.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
You do not have to use that youtube. I don't use either of them until hardware accel is working right.

The google apps are available as a seperare mod which can be installed when you first install cm7 but gapps doesn't need to be reinstalled everytime you upgrade your nightly. My mod does.

The audio boost is dalingrin's code, and has been in his kernel for a while.
[Nook Color Android Development] aludal:
Thank you, your work is even more valuable and appreciated when there's more grim prospects for CM8 show up these days.

Dalingrin's audio boost didn't do much though, yet. But hey, with all your enhancements and repaired YouTube/Flash and other video this little silly B&N ereader is capable of beating Moto Xoom not only in Quadrant benchmarks, but in overall responsiveness, usability and gameability.
[Nook Color Android Development] jayjay7411:
why isn't it working I'm on nighlty 31 and downloaded this 2 times to make sure wasn't bad download....?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I did not build it as beinging installable that way. I think you have to make an install script and such. Install instructions are in the first post.
[Nook Color Android Development] lxnyce:
Hi chisleu, thanks for the mods. Why oh why didn't I read the first post fully though. I saw Miui Music and Live Wallpapers, so I rushed to install. Had I read it fully, I would have seen that you mucked with the hardware button config. Now I have to go change that back since I prefer volume up as back and down as menu. Great package though.
[Nook Color Android Development] mediabear:
Is this safe to use on verygreen's sd card version of cm7?

Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I don't know if the install instructions would be the same. I would bet so.
[Nook Color Android Development] mediabear:
I was able to get it to install by doing this

Installation instructions:

Unzip the file I provide.

Connect nook to USB.

run cmd

cd into the folder where the files are

adb remount

adb push system /system/

adb reboot

I couldnt get the wallpapers to install from Astro file explorer. It wanted to uninstall the old cm7 wallpapers but it said uninstall unsuccessful. Then I tried the launch option and it said activity not found.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I don't know. I just run it and it installs, replacing the cm7 wallpapers. I can't really work to diagnose any issue with it. I just don't know enough about it.

I run it from the stock file browser and it brings up the typical install window.
[Nook Color Android Development] mediabear:
I just tried the stock file browser and it worked! :) Everything else is running nice too. Thanks.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Updated w/ new fullscreen boot animation:

Now designed for mad_murdock's tablet tweaks rom (which will be merged into cm7 soon.)

More in FP. Working on CMR flashable zip now.
[Nook Color Android Development] chuffykow:
Question about Apple BT keyboard

I like the tweaks that this provides. However, I'm unable to get CM7 working with my Apple Bluetooth keyboard. It pairs / connects, but no matter what keys I bang, nothing shows up on the NookColor. Can you point me to a few of the resources you used to get your keyboard working?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
In the bluetooth menu does it show as connected to HID device? or as paired but not connected?
[Nook Color Android Development] chuffykow:
It shows as 'Connected to hid device'. When I go to the keyboard options popup menu, the 'Connect' and 'HID' options are selected. Is there some input setting I need to change? I'm very new to Android here.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
It should show "connected to HID device" in settings->wireless networks->bluetooth settings

If it shows that and the up/down arrow don't move something around the screen/etc, then there is a problem above my paygrade.

Download "KeyEvent Display" and see if it shows anything when you press buttons on the keyboard. be sure to enable the log/kernel options at the top of the screen.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
working on testing internal memory speed for optimization:

J Disk Benchmark 2.0
[Nook Color Android Development] met67:
WRT to SD read ahead cache, your script set its size to 1024 for device /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:0, which, IIUIC, only affects internal mmc.

You could add the same snippet but for device /sys/devices/virtual/bdi/179:16, which should be the external uSD.
[Nook Color Android Development] l30r0:
tried installing through CR on latest tablet tweaked CM7 and wouldn't work. Had to adb push it, but it's definitely working now. Nice lil' mod, thanks for putting it together.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
thanks for the heads up. Investigating. Just did a shutdown because sd tools was acting like it was stalling

Not sure what is going on. reverted to 4/4 kernel. deleted the 99sdcardreadfix, rebooted again. I'm getting stalling in sdtools when it's reading which is affecting the results. Going to revert to 3/31 kernel (what I used testing yesterday) but it seems unlikely the kernel changes affected file system performance.

EDIT: Yes it gets like 1/4 of the way through the test and stalls, then repeatedly stalls while testing bringing the average down to 2.6MB/s

EDIT: Reverted to 3/31, removed 99sdcardreadfix, hoping I get some normal readings or I may have a problem.

"Substance is something; I know not what."

going from 128 to 4096, I can't see any real speed differences in sd card performance on my card. perhaps on different cards they will. I'm going to try a boot SD card I have laying around which is like 1gb and slower than my class 10 patriot.

EDIT: Extensive testing with multiple SD cards of different size/speed/etc. I can't get any performance gains whatsoever from this trick. I removed it. Also added back volume key remapping since it's been dropped from cm7 tablet tweaks.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
updated for nightly 38.

removed LWP

added fullscreen "big bang" LWP. It is too big to really play well and the loop at the end is kinda insane. I will probably change to another one.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
Updated for CM7.0 Final release. removed boot animation. Miui optional.

i have this same problem with the 3 battery apple bt aluminum keyboard

I know someone mentioned in a bt thread on functioning devices that the newer 2 battery version worked, but that doesn't help me. :o I haven't found anyone besides you reporting a bt keybaord connecting and pairing but not functioning.

might be something with this keyboard.

xoom bluetooth keyboard changes

Used adbWireless (Widget versopm) and KeyEvent Display from Market; Chris Boyle Android keymaps webpage; phiremod nook V6; notepad++ on Windows 7; and most importantly this thread. Thanks to all of you.

Normal warning. Use at own risk. Make backup.

0. Install Android sdk or Easy USB ADB Installer for Windows (32/64 bit) see link. The full or easy would not find my nook that is why I used adbWireless. "adb devices" was blank instead of listing my nook using the sdk or easy version. I have got sdk to work in past but not with phiremod nook V6 connected.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=910008

1. Type "cmd" in windows and use "cd" to set the directory to where your adb.exe files is. Hint: you can use copy and paste to avoid having to type the path.

2. Run adbWireless on your nook

3. Type in the computer's command window "adb connect 192.168.1.1.102:5555" given by your nook adbWireless app . This will be your local address. Use yours not the one shown as I listed this address for illustration purposes.

adb pull /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl qwerty.kl

4. Make a copy of qwerty.kl as qwerty-original.kl

5. Use notepad++ not notepad. Notepad++ is a Linux/Android editor. Google notepad++ and download if you have not done so before. Open qwerty.kl with notepad++.

Correct orientation for landscape mode - change so group looks like this

key 108 DPAD_LEFT WAKE_DROPPED

key 103 DPAD_RIGHT WAKE_DROPPED

key 102 HOME WAKE

key 105 DPAD_UP WAKE_DROPPED

key 106 DPAD_DOWN WAKE_DROPPED

Added these at the end - attempt to make keys work

# On an Xoom:

key 226 MENU WAKE_DROPPED

key 111 FORWARD_DEL

# Drawer

key 125 APP_SWITCH WAKE_DROPPED

key 113 VOLUME_MUTE WAKE

key 165 MEDIA_PREVIOUS WAKE_DROPPED

key 163 MEDIA_NEXT WAKE_DROPPED

key 164 MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE WAKE_DROPPED

key 166 MEDIA_STOP WAKE_DROPPED

key 58 CAPS_LOCK

Save file

6. From cmd window

adb remount

adb push qwerty.kl /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl
[Nook Color Android Development] lschroeder:
Used KeyEvent Display to come up with codes in the above post. On the ones I added the only key 226 MENU worked for me. The others seemed logical but I could not get to work with any applications. I know you can press shift twice to get capslock's function. I did not remap the volume keys on the nook and bluetooth keyboard since phiremod v6 implements the status bar differently. The original OP remaps these keys. You could modify the volume keys as well for our nook and bluetooth keyboard. You could reassign the media keys for the volume functions like chisleau did for his bluetooth keyboard.

The arrow group did work nicely in many applications, but in application such as Documents to Go, typing would be where I left off not where the arrows were. Anybody with other modified bluetooth keyboards have this issue?

WAKE_DROPPED AND WAKE are about pressing the keys when in sleep mode. WAKE allows the key action to occur and WAKE_DROPPED prevents the key action. I kept spacing same are original file. When I pasted in the above post the spacing got lost.

@chisleau Thanks for your work and help. I did nothing with your qwerty.kcm.bin file. Do I need to push yours over the one that phiremod V6 has in it? I did not see where the [shift ,] > and [shift .] > are implemented, is that in the bin file?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
yes! That is the bin file. It was an easy fix. Good job. If you want I will attempt to incorporate your stuff or make another ROM for your keyboard.

Sent from my cm7 nook color
[Nook Color Android Development] lschroeder:
You could incorporate but still have two ROMs. One with menu/back being volumes and one with volumes staying and all the other fixes added. It looks like from checking our qwerty.kl files that there are no conflicts except for the media keys being used for volumes in your file. Your ROM technique would be easier for most folks. Giving them a choice to remap volume or keep same seems like a good option.
[Nook Color Android Development] lschroeder:
@chisleau You might want to try loading my qwerty.kl in your nook and see if the media keys, del (forward version), mute, caplock work in any of your applications with the zoom bluetooth keyboard? If you try loading mine, let me know how it went? This might be a good thing to do before incorporating. I do not know your keyboard, so I do not know which of my keys have functions on yours.

There are home, back, mail, internet and other keys on mine that also function properly. I did not have to map these. There are a couple more with 2 keyscan showing (127 is always the first). Do you have any idea what to do with these since they are not mapped to anything?
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
double keycodes are common on some extra-button keyboards.

I'm not sure how to get them working. I think it requires a special software app to watch for them.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
busy busy. finals coming up and have things going on IRL.

If you want to take my zip and put your keylayout in it (replacing mind) that will make a flashable version for you. All you have to do is replace that one file.
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I posted an updated version. It includes a modified build.prop to allow for Netflix to play properly.

Updated the OP.
[Nook Color Android Development] chefdave12118:
Nice work!!!! Thanks for making it flashable and adding to the forum. I own a restaurant and don't have the time to figure out all these fixes (I did the build.prop fix last month and now I have chipmunks)..... so anything flashable is a HUGE help to me. We need more people like you in the NC forums. :)

[Nook Color Android Development] B-Mod:
One question, how do you turn up the volume without the volume up and down buttons?.........
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
I use an app. MyVolume in the market works great, and I bind it to the long press of the home button. I use wave launcher for recent apps.
[Nook Color Android Development] projektdotnet:
Great work! Stole the build.prop and updated it for n101 for those who want it but don't want the mods to the keyboard: here.

Thanks for the build.prop Chisleu!
[Nook Color Android Development] chisleu:
All I did was change the two settings per someone else's post/research. No big deal. Glad you could use it.
[Nook Color Android Development] bike2002:
Hi Chisleu,

Sorry, have to borrow your thread to get to projektdotnet.

Also have to thank you for your mod.

Hi Projektdotnet,

You closed your other thread too soon.

It seems that the app/apk does not work for those running from the microSD.

It works only for those running from the emmc.

Since your mod is for 101 only, you may need to continue your effort to provide mods for newer nightly.

I do not know the detail working of your mod, but it seems that it may be applied to newer nightly without changes. Am I correct?

Thank you for your effort.
[Nook Color Android Development] lschroeder:
Just installed this with nightly 126 to enhance my bluetooth keyboard. Trying to decide between bluetooth and usb keyboards. Like power with bluetooth. Had not checked bluetooth until now with 32 kernels. 29 bluetooth dropped out too much.

Is there any problem with overwriting the system > usr > keychars > qwerty.kcm.bin with one from unzipped opening page to get greater and less symbols working? There is also qwerty2.kcm.bin file out there. The nightly has a modified alsa.omap3.so that I use usb mic and speaker with. Not sure how all this works and what I could hurt by overwriting. Using a SDcard so backing up is a little harder.
[Atrix 4G General] tomlee337:
Something weird just happened to me. Before I was on Gingerblur and when I press the home button, the screen would go back o default screen. If I started off from the default screen and then pressed the home button. then the Dub screens would appear. Now that option is gone. The only why I can bring up my sub screens is if I press the app drawer icon in motoblur. If I press the home screen, nothing happens. Is this a bug or can this be easily corrected in the settings. Please advise. Thanls
[Atrix 4G General] neer2005:
Once you install gingerblur you get the stock gingerbread launcher which does no support that function. Try installing ADW Launcher or Launcher Pro from the Market.

[Fascinate General] rushfanx1:
So... TODAY, I finally got my fascinate exactly how I want it.

Im running SC2.9.2V... Midnight Steel Theme... All my apps set....

everything running great. Best its ever been.

So, what happens...

The phone is sitting on the console of my car... Minding its own business... Some guy cuts me off and it falls between the small crack between my seat and the console. So, I park... get out of the car... and start to move the seat back and i hear CRACKKKKKKK......

So, I start moving the seat forward... Somehow, get my hand under the seat and pull out my phone... Screen is completely Cracked... ARGHHHHH

I have the Bestbuy insurance, so they will replace it, but now I have to start all over again.. Rooting... Installing... blah blah blah...

Ok... I feel slightly better now...

Gonna call Bestbuy now and start the replacement process
[Fascinate General] ashasaur:
...good luck with that, most insurance policies through retailers don't cover cracked screens...
[Fascinate General] rushfanx1:
OK.. more VENTING

So, I call BB...

1... They tell me my plan was cancelled back in Dec... The Credit Card I had on file had expired and they couldnt bill it

2... They can not re-instate the policy because its over 3 months since cancellation

3... I had planned on telling them that I lost the phone, but it turns out that they dont cover loss or theft..

Man... This sucks

So, turns out, I am do for an upgrade on my account. I can get a new Fascinate from Verizon or maybe I just go for the ThunderBolt.....

Hmmmm.... Now it gets interesting
